Sixteen is much more than just a number.
It's when, for the first time in her life...
Hear ye! hear ye!
A proclamation ordered by the king...
Do you remember those times together?
The times we swore we'd spend together forever...
Your laughter speaks the loudest
And you tell me that you're fine...
We say goodbye to soul today
One so bright she won't fade to grey...
Going through my poems,
I wrote when I was young...
Warm nights bring soft breezes
As I stare out a darkened window...
You grip my finger in your tiny hand
and you look at me as if I have all the answers...
They do not change like the seasons.
My mother is the height of summer...
Why is control a thing
Maybe I’m going insane...
I plant my feet firmly into the softened soil,
Digging in my toes until they become my roots...

The world spins faster...
